-Subject: [PATCH] drop capabilities
+Subject: [PATCH iputils] drop capabilities
 
 dropping capabilities makes sure that ping also gets rid of privileges
 gained via fscaps. Capabilities are also dropped when called as root so
 the running ping process has no special privileges anymore at all even
-in that case.
+in that case. Capabilities need to be dropped after setuid() otherwise a
+setuid ping would not have the privileges to drop root privileges anymore!
